we got to lay out a path, a process that includes passing a background check, paying taxes, paying a penalty, learning english, and then going to the back of the line behind all the folks who are trying to come here legally. that's only fair. all right. so that means it won't be a quick process, but it will be a fair process. and it will lift these individuals out of the shadows, and give them a chance to earn their way to a green card and eventually to citizenship. and the third principle is we got to bring our legal immigration system into the 21st century, because it no longer reflects the realities of our time. for example, if you are a citizen, you shouldn't have to wait years before your family is able to join you in america. you shouldn't have to wait years. if you're a foreign student, who wants to pursue a career in science or technology, or a foreign entrepreneur who wants to start a business, with the backing of american investors, we should help you do that here, because if you succeed, you'll create american businesses. and american jobs. you'll help us grow our economy,
